Channels? Wow!

I am just getting my first reading glasses this week. I have been  
wearing contact lenses for 20 years, but last 12 months I have been  
wondering why is it so difficult to read charts laying on my kayak  
deck. Stupid me.

I'll have to re-think all my strategies considering paddling or  
working, because my eyesight is about -8 in both eyes. An operation is  
out of question because most probably it will have to be done again  
after few years. And spectacles are quite irritating in rain and in my  
style of four-season paddling & camping at the Finnish Gulf.
